ISO: Yucan Cicken soup

[oli]

When living in So. Cal., Lomia, there was a Mexican restaurant that we went to often. When I was sick I did take out a big bowl of their soup. I live now in ID. and there is nothing like that here and when we are in Phoenix we have not found that style of chicken soup there either.

I have written to the restaurant and the Los Angeles times for the recipe to no avail.

I've done some extensive research on the restaurant and it appears to be Yucan  chicken soup. It didn't have lemon, noodles or dark red colour. It did have rice.

I looked on the internet but no luck.

Is Yucan the name of the restaurant or of the soup? 
Did you live in Lomita or Lomia?

 

Edited to add that this is a bit of a leap as it doesn’t match with anything you’ve asked, but on the outside chance that you lived in Lomita and went to the Yucatán Grill in Seal Beach, they offer a Sopa de Lima made with chicken.  Coincidentally, @Smithy recently made a Sopa de Lima recipe she got from a chef in San Diego. You can find a link to the recipe she uploaded and her description of making it in this post.

Could it be a misspelling of Yucatan? There is a well known one from there called Sopa de lima (lime soup, with lime juice, chicken,  fried tortilla, broth ect)

I'm pretty sure this is the one.
